The 2nd edition of Research.com ranking of the best researchers in the
arena of Immunology is based on data
consolidated from a wide range of data sources including OpenAlex and
CrossRef. The bibliometric data for estimating the citation-based metrics were
acquired on 21-12-2022. Position in the ranking is based on a
researcher’s D-index (Discipline H-index), which
includes exclusively papers and citation
values for an examined discipline.

The range of our Immunology research
Our best researchers ranking is a trustworthy
account of leading scholars from the discipline of
Immunology, established by means of a thorough
analysis of 166,880 researchers determined
from various bibliometric data sources. For the field of
Immunology, over 8616 scholars were
investigated.
What is D-index approval threshold for Immunology
The D-index threshold for including a scientist to be
examined is set to 40 if
the majority of of their publications are in the field of Immunology. The
approval criteria for researchers to be
considered into the ranking of top scientists are based on the D-index, ratio
of the contributions made within the specific area
plus the awards and achievements of the scholars. The
D-index threshold for listing best researchers is
set as an increment of 10 depending on the overall number of scientists
assessed for each scientific field whilst
guaranteeing that the top 1% of leading scholars are
considered into the ranking. We expect a proximity of
30% or less between a scientist’s general H-index and their D-index.
Other verification rules
Since our leading aim is to guarantee that only
genuine scholars are listed in
our ranking we are aware that raw data are never
meant to be an absolute means to assess the
output of scholars. This is why
we manually inspect every profile and cross-correlate it against publications in a
varied range of credible sources. While it’s not a
metric contributing to a scientist’s position in
Research.com ranking, the quantity of papers published in
prominent journals and conference proceedings should constitute a
credible secondary implication of their contribution to research in a
selected area of science. Position in the ranking is
established using each researcher’s D-index
with the help of metrics collected from OpenAlex and
CrossRef, which are the most trustworthy and well-established bibliometric
databases of this kind accessible to the scientific community. A
detailed explanation of our research process
can be found on our
methodology page.
Our mission
Our objective is to inspire researchers,
companies and politicians
worldwide to explore where leading experts are heading
and to offer an opportunity for the entire research community to
find out who the leading experts in specific
disciplines, in various countries, or even within research
institutions are.
